<p>I lived in France from age 7-16, so my 9th and 10th year grades don't have Honors or APs since those don't exist in France. Therefore my GPA isn't high when it is cumulative (2.9) but if you look at my Junior year of HS it is 4.1. And my senior grades are looking the same so far.</p>

<p>I took 2 AP exams last year: Psychology and French, and got 5 on both.
I am taking AP European History this year and ALL Honors classes. (And i'll be taking the AP European History AP Test)</p>

<p>My counselor statement explains my lower GPA and grade situation for 9th and 10th grade.</p>

<p>SAT:
Critical Reading: 660
Writing: 720
Math: 520</p>

<p>Subject test:
Literature: 640
French Language: 800</p>

<p>I'm the photographer and web designer of my school newspaper, I babysit and do french tutoring, I do community work for the Salvation Army and Habitat for Humanity, but have only done so since about a month. I play the piano and do portrait photography. I've been in clubs such as FBLA and the French Club and have also been a lead actress in drama class.</p>

<p>My essay has info about my living in France (diversity), the culture and traveling experiences I had (I traveled throughout Europe a lot).</p>

<p>I want to major in French or Psychology.</p>

<p>Any opinion?</p>

<p>Yes, there’s a chance you’ll get in… Syracuse isn’t too hard to be accepted to. Their SAT averages are in the 500’s, so you’re good in that area. The GPA? If you have a GPA of 4.1 junior year, you should be fine…</p>

<p>Relax; you’ll probably get accepted. :)</p>

<p>Really? I just hope they’ll look at my Junior transcripts and see how well i’ve done.
Thanks for the encouraging message! I’m crossing my fingers…</p>

<p>Any other opinion on my acceptance chances?</p>

<p>Does anyone think they’ll see my GPA and just decide to reject me? (even though my counselor statement and additional info explain it?)</p>

<p>Will having an 800 on SAT II in French help since i’m applying with intention to major in French language studies?</p>
